acomplished..

hello australia!
today was another great day.
although nothing exciting as my book coming in happened, i did finish #9 and start #10 this afternoon. are you realising that they must be the greatest books on earth if me - danielle abbott, the queen of not reading books ever, unless its for english, and even then its a struggle - is reading them at the pace of a book every four or so hours..
get the books!
so we are all in the car this morning ready for camp and had just gotten to the end of our street when i was going through the list of everything they needed and did they have it, when i say 'backpack with swimmers, towel, lunch and drink bottle' and garrett says, oh uhm actually i dont have my bag. kill me now.
really garrett, really?! we were already late as it was and so i had to find somewhere to turn around - hard because it is peak hour at 9 in the morning and no one would stop to let me reverse out of some randoms driveway... but anyway, we got the bag, and got to the bus - last, again, but still got there.
i came home and cleaned and then i went to karen's mum's where we got so much done! her filing cabinet was flowing of years and years worth of paper things, and slowly but surely we went through it all, and you should see it now!
then i stopped at stop and shop on the way home, got some super fruit antioxident amazingly refreshing icypoles (i could be a commercial for them right? haha) and a lettuce for dinner. we obviously didn't just have lettuce, it was for tacos.
got the kids from the bus and we played this card game until i cooked dinner and then i made sundaes for everyone and we watched 'mars needs mums' together.
then i finally got them all to bed, had to sing taylor swift with rachel, bribe matt, scratch garretts back and let harrison sleep downstairs (that was because his room still smells like paint from where karen touched up the roof a day ago) but i did do it. although rach is now in my bed next to me watching beauty and the beast on tv because she can't sleep... i see her dozing though, so she will be back in her own bed anyyyyy second now.
well i am going to have a cuppa and read my book.
goodnight. xxx
p.s i miss yelling out to mum when i realise there is no toilet paper, whilst on the toilet. now i ALWAYS have to make sure there is extra in the cabinet next to the toilet, or i'm in trouble.
